Well, you should come visit, some
time.
There's a lot to see.
There is a lot to see in rather less unstable parts of the world too. Life
is short even with healthcare and no guns, so one has to prioritise.
There is even loads to see within a 5km radius of my home. The next town
across is a minor settlement called Amsterdam which I have heard might also
contain a museum or two.
Europe is not a howling wasteland with a forlorn C64 in the corner.
